The Mighty Ship
by louis gander The brand new car, the hand-held game or other things we chose, the TV set, the picture frame or nice designer clothes, possessions each- and all the toys, with every single day, will rot or rust as earth destroys - and simply waste away. Of great importance, though, the chore to grow the love of 'greed'. Yes, bigger- better- greater- more, so water, we, our needs. --- (to the spiritual...) --- No sea or ocean is around to put a ship afloat - and twilight comes much, much too soon to build a mighty boat. While aimlessly, the world roams, surprised, I hear the Lord, "The mighty ship is sailing home. It's time to get aboard." So swiftly, on my journey, go here on this mighty ship - and left behind, all those I know. I sail my final trip. Securely, though, on ship thereof, upon the mighty sea, I find myself in arms of love - and earth has ceased to be. --- (and back to the physical...) --- It's all 'the rage' so hey, come on! Be noticed! That's our goal! With make-up and great outfit on, who cares about the soul? Contoured, the fields of corn and hay, the winds bring season's fall. A few have learned the real way - are humbled through it all. The sun has lost its grip to west and darkness now draws nigh. Are we prepared to be His guest? Are we prepared to die?
